Avilés

Avilés sits on the Asturian coast near Gijón, where rolling green hills meet the Bay of Biscay. Runners have flat coastal options and short local races like the Milla de Llanera, but the real draw for cyclists is inland—the Marcha Cicloturista Villa de Gijón courses (33km and 101km variants) and the Marcha Solidaria Monteareo BTT head into the Cantabrian foothills with steady climbs and tight forest roads typical of northern Spain's Atlantic slope. The region averages 1200m of annual rainfall, so expect wet conditions most months.
